[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the implementation mode of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 , shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a self-locking stainless steel base embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 6 , a self-locking stainless steel base is introduced in detail.

[0033] A self-locking stainless steel base includes a mounting platform 100, which is in the shape of a truncated cone with an open top wall. A vertical rotating column 110 is rotatably provided at the center of the bottom wall of the mounting platform 100, and a circular plate-shaped turntable 120 is rotatably provided at the top of the mounting platform 100. The top end of the rotating column 110 is fixed at the center of the bottom wall of the turntable 120. The mounting platform 100 and the turntable 120 are both made of stainless steel and have good corrosion resistance and strength.

[0034] The bottom wall of the inner cavity of the mounting platform 100 is provided with a mounting frame 200, the side wall of the mounting frame 200 is rotatably provided with a driving rod 210, the outer side of the rod body of the rotating column 110 is provided with a worm gear 230, and the rod body of the driving rod 210 is provided with a worm 220 meshing with the worm gear 230;

[0035] The right end of the driving rod 210 rotates through the outer wall of the mounting platform 100 and is provided with a mounting groove 300 at the right end. A transverse spring 320 is rotatably provided at the left end of the inner cavity of the mounting groove 300 through the bearing seat 310. A clamping block 330 is provided at the other end of the spring 320. A limiting insert 340 is provided around and protrudes on the side wall of the clamping block 330. A limiting slot 350 aligned with the limiting insert 340 is provided in a concave manner at the right end of the inner cavity side wall of the mounting groove 300.

[0036] A sleeve 400 is provided at the right end of the block 330, and the inner side of the left end of the sleeve 400 is sleeved on the outer side of the driving rod 210. A fixing plate 410 is provided at the right end of the sleeve 400, and a hand crank 420 parallel to the sleeve 400 is rotatably provided at the other end of the fixing plate 410.

[0037] Furthermore, an annular slide groove 130 is formed in an inwardly concave shape on the upper edge of the mounting platform 100, and the rod body of the driving rod 210 does not contact the slide groove 130. Universal wheels 140 are arranged at equal intervals around the bottom wall of the turntable 120 with the rotating column 110 as the center. A gap is set between the lower surface of the turntable 120 and the upper edge of the mounting platform 100. The universal wheel 140 is located directly above the slide groove 130, and the wheel surface of the universal wheel 140 rolls on the bottom of the groove of the slide groove 130. The turntable 120 is supported by the universal wheel 140, and when the turntable 120 rotates, the wheel surface of the universal wheel 140 rolls on the bottom of the groove of the slide groove 130, and the friction force is small.

[0038] Furthermore, the lead angle of the worm 220 is smaller than the equivalent friction angle between the meshing teeth of the worm wheel 230, so that the worm 220 and the worm wheel 230 have self-locking properties and can achieve reverse self-locking, that is, only the worm 220 can drive the worm wheel 230, but the worm wheel 230 cannot drive the worm 220. Its reverse self-locking property prevents the turntable 120 from rotating on its own, thereby achieving self-locking of the turntable 120.

[0039] Furthermore, when the spring 320 is not squeezed by external force, the elastic force of the spring 320 itself pushes the block 330, so that the block 330 is located outside the installation groove 300, and the limiting strip 340 and the limiting slot 350 are separated. At this time, no matter how the sleeve 400 is rotated, the driving rod 210 will not rotate therewith, thereby avoiding accidentally touching the hand rocker 420 to cause the turntable 120 to rotate.

[0040] Furthermore, when the block 330 is squeezed by the sleeve 400, the spring 320 is compressed, and the block 330 is located in the inner cavity of the installation groove 300, and the limiting strip 340 is inserted into the groove of the limiting slot 350. After the user drives the sleeve 400 with one hand to squeeze the spring 320, the limiting strip 340 is inserted into the groove of the limiting slot 350. At this time, after rotating the sleeve 400 again, it will drive the drive rod 210 to rotate.

[0041] Furthermore, a bearing sleeve 430 is provided on the outer wall of the sleeve 400, and an anti-slip sleeve 440 is provided on the outer side of the bearing sleeve 430. The bearing sleeve 430 is divided into an inner ring and an outer ring, and the two are rotatably connected, and the inner side of the inner ring is fixed to the outer side of the sleeve 400, and the outer side of the outer ring is provided with an anti-slip sleeve 440. After the user holds the anti-slip sleeve 440 with one hand and squeezes the spring 320 through the sleeve 400, the other hand can hold the hand crank 420 to drive the sleeve 400 to rotate.

[0042] During specific use, when the turntable 120 needs to be turned to adjust the orientation of the object above it, the user holds the anti-slip sleeve 440 with one hand, applies force in the direction of the drive rod 210, and squeezes the spring 320 through the sleeve 400, so that the limiting insert 340 fits into the groove of the limiting slot 350. The other hand can hold the hand crank 420 to drive the sleeve 400 to rotate. At this time, the drive rod 210 can be driven to rotate, and then the rotating column 110 drives the turntable 120 to rotate through the worm 220 and the worm wheel 230 to achieve steering.

[0043] When there is no need to rotate the turntable 120, firstly, since the worm 220 and the worm wheel 230 are self-locking, reverse self-locking can be achieved, that is, only the worm 220 can drive the worm wheel 230, and the worm wheel 230 cannot drive the worm 220. Its reverse self-locking property prevents the turntable 120 from rotating, thereby realizing the self-locking of the turntable 120. Secondly, in order to avoid accidentally touching the hand rocker 420 to drive the drive rod 210 to rotate, an anti-accidental touch device is also provided, that is, when the spring 320 is not squeezed by external force, the elastic force of the spring 320 itself pushes the block 330 so that the block 330 is located outside the mounting groove 300. At this time, the limiting strip 340 and the limiting slot 350 are separated, and no matter how the sleeve 400 is rotated, the drive rod 210 will not rotate accordingly, thereby avoiding accidentally touching the hand rocker 420 to cause the turntable 120 to rotate.

[0044] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiments, various modifications may be made thereto and parts thereof may be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the various features in the embodiments disclosed in the present invention may be used in combination with each other in any manner, and the fact that these combinations are not exhaustively described in this specification is only for the sake of omitting space and saving resources. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
